I would recommend www.familytreedna.com the group you would use I
believe is "MacDonald". That group is connected with the Clan Donald
group. That is the company I used. You could do your son or husband , no
difference. It only works for the McDonald / MacDonald lineage since it
is thru the Y DNA.

Does anyone know which company is best to use for this test, or is there more than one to contact? How does it work? Do they mail you something to use and then have you mail it back? I've been told to expect to pay around $100. Any other info on the cost?
